We cannot see air, but it is there and keeps us alive; the same is valid for a legacy system like AS400/iSeries. It is there and keeping the business alive, and if it goes down, it is an emergency.
The as400 iSeries is another name of the IBM power systems server line. The IBM iSeries is designed to provide high redundancy and uptime. It was started in the year 1980, and technically AS400 is the name of the first generation. Now, it’s called IBM iSeries, but most veterans prefer to use the former term only.
AS/400, IBM i, IBM iSeries — you can call it whatever you want, but this system is an invisible force behind many IT organizations. Nearly 30,000 rely on this incredible, robust, and resilient platform to run their core business. Furthermore, no other better, cheaper, and smarter alternative has emerged for decades, so this legacy system continues to deliver.
Do You Want to Know the Reason Behind the Same?
- It is a workhorse – Many companies have a single machine that keeps ticking year after year. Distributed systems worldwide are built for redundancy and failure, which is an admirable model, but IBM AS400/iSeries is built to last.
- It runs the core business applications – Whether it’s the ERP or any in-house developed business-specific application, everything is painstakingly written and implemented around it. And new software is hard to implement, or they do not exist.
Apart from this, there are other priorities too.
But this is not enough, as it is time for companies to stop taking these systems for granted and see what more it can do for the business.

– You are purchasing and implementing new systems developed on different technologies like Java and .NET. You need the most experienced people with master skills of AS/400 to catch up with the original setup.
- The AS/400 systems are running your most mission-critical solutions. You cannot migrate them to other platforms because of cost and time considerations and uncertain economic conditions.
- Or you are considering the option of using an AS/400 application, but stuck on – Where to find experienced people on the selected tool? How to protect my training investments and ramp up the efforts? What to do with the people at the end of the project?
